- walshemj 9y agoReally assuming you don't work in a Job requiring security clearance that seems excessive.
- Consultant32452 9y agoI've never had security clearance of any kind. Highlights that all required drug testing were: restaurant national headquarters, towing/insurance national headquarters, theme park, defense contractor for non-secure projects, and a bank. Though now that I think about it I have technically worked at two companies that didn't drug test: my own, and a small 3-man startup I did some work for. It's worth mentioning that I live in a red state. I suspect blue states have cultures that are a little more lax on drug testing, though I have no real data to back that up.
- jpindar 9y agoI have never had a drug test, and that includes several jobs working for defense contractors. (The law said they had to have a plan for testing anyone they suspected of drug use. It didn't say they had to suspect anyone.)
- wils1245 9y agoWhat sector are you in?
- Consultant32452 9y agoHere's the sectors I've worked in throughout my career: Insurance, banking, marketing, entertainment (theme park), restaurants, and defense. Every single one of my jobs in those sectors required drug tests prior to employment.
